AJW Technique Interiors, a division of AJW Group, has announced that long-term partner Azerbaijan Airlines will install eco-friendly material SkyLeather on three of its A319 and six of its A320 aircraft. 

Designed in partnership with Autostop Aviation, Sky Leather is a durable, lightweight and economical manmade seat leather, offering significant advantages over natural leather. Its easy-to-clean surface contributes to a reduction in direct maintenance costs (DMC), allowing for efficient seat maintenance and a superior cabin appearance.

It also offers substantial weight savings and will allow Azerbaijan Airlines to reduce its fuel consumption and increase cost savings as a result.

“The installation of SkyLeather not only elevates the airline’s commitment to sustainability but also provides passengers with an exceptional level of comfort and aesthetics,” said Christopher Whiteside, Chairman at AJW Group.

Samir Rzayev, First Vice President of Azerbaijan Airlines CJSC, commented, “AZAL is actively working to improve the quality of its services, always committed to meet the needs of its passengers and at the same time minimise the negative impact on the environment.”
